In this film we will examine many social developments that occurred in the 20th century and are still being experienced today. The majority of these are developments that were revealed by the Prophet Muhammad some 1,400 years ago. The Prophet used the expression “End times” to refer to the time when these would be experienced, and said that some of these events were a sign that last hour was near. We have also witnessed how just about all of these portents have now come about.
It must not be forgotten that every portent that comes about shows that the Last Hour has drawn a little closer, and reminds us of the importance of immediately returning to the morality of the Qur’an. Most people in our time never consider these matters, or decline to talk about them. Even talking about natural disasters or watching a film about death or disaster can be unbearable for them. What they are trying to do is to escape the fear that the idea of Doomsday inspires. However, it is an inescapable fact that Doomsday will happen. God reveals that Doomsday is near in another verse:
And the Hour is coming without any doubt ... (Qur’an, 22: 7)
The signs set out in the hadiths and verses are coming about one after the other at the present time. Developments the like of which have never been seen before are coming about right in the age we are living in. People must not ignore these divine portents, but must make the best possible use of them. The signs of the end times are a great warning and a reminder to them.
God’s promises are a certain truth. No one can change His promises or prevent their fulfillment. As in every matter, so here the best and most beautiful last words comes from the Qur’an:
Say: “Praise be to God. He will show you His Signs and you will recognise them...” (Qur’an, 27: 93)
